Tidepool, a software company involved diabetes management, announced a new data integration with continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) manufacturer Abbott. The cloud-to-cloud integration will provide an automatic stream of data from patients using Abbott’s FreeStyle Libre portfolio of CGMs in the U.S. to Tidepool. Tidepool, a diabetes data visualization and population health platform, provides intuitive tracking and visualization of diabetes data, making the data informative and actionable for clinicians, people living with diabetes, and caregivers.
All cloud-to-cloud connections for Tidepool are designed with simplicity and streamlined workflows in mind. Clinics and health systems using Tidepool+ will be able to initiate the connection with their patients using FreeStyle Libre 2 and 3 systems in clinic or remotely. Tidepool+ will seamlessly merge data from any sensor in the FreeStyle Libre portfolio into its Population Health Dashboard and retrospective data displays, creating a comprehensive overview for clinicians to assess outcomes for their entire patient population.

Tidepool and Abbott’s new data integration will simplify data sharing by automating data upload to Tidepool for patients wearing the FreeStyle Libre portfolio and create more efficient workflows for clinics and health systems that provide ongoing and proactive care.
